I had to cast it. TNN has Glamour stealth units. I need to be able to kill them even if I cannot see them. The global would not have been cast but for the attack by TNN. I realize that it is a diplomatic nightmare, but... There really isn't a better defense against strong glamour stealth units.
As for assistance, Twobits, I hadn't expected any after casting Wrathful Skies. It's not a move that I would have preferred to take, but I had no choice--without the global, TNN may very well have overrun my defenses--His thugs are rather powerful and he is using Fog Warriors. TNN, rather than electing to fight over the VP provinces in and of themselves, decided to lie to me (indicating that he had no intention of attacking) and then begin taking provinces with his glamour stealth army. While you may consider Wrathful skies a "mistake", I may have died but for it's power and that would have been a far greater mistake.
As a final note... If there were a version of Wrathful Skies that only affected provinces under white candle, that would have truly been my preference, but no such option exists. I also do not mind so much taking the current position I have as the VP accumulation would have turned everyone on me anyway eventually, and I do so very much enjoy a challenge.
20 turns until I win at present velocity... 20 turns of King of the Hill... If I succeed it will be spectacular. If I fail, t'will have been a most excellent fight!
